Seeing the back of the Steam Deck taken apart now has me itching to see what it looks like from the front.

Tear down walls with vehicles or explosives to create shortcuts, Use the environment to your advantage in the most creative way you can think of. That lines up with my experience of testing the Steam Deck (opens in new tab) and feeling some intense heat coming from the top of the device. Prepare the perfect heist in this simulated and fully destructible voxel world. So what can we learn from the teardown, other than all the reasons not to take this thing apart? It's nicely labeled-like many laptops, there are scannable QR code stickers on many of the parts, which should help repair folks look up their exact specifications.Ĭompared to a typical gaming laptop, there's not much heat piping here-seemingly just one flattened heat pipe running from the APU to the top-center of the device, where a fan blows the hot air up and out.
